We just wrapped up our very first City Drop in Hong Kong.

Wow, what an incredible adventure we've just had in Hong Kong with our very first City Drop! It was a full-on exploration fest that brought together the real and the augmented in ways we've never seen before. We darted through streets, discovered digital treasures, and connected with the city and each other on a whole new level.

A massive shoutout to everyone who joined us—your energy and enthusiasm were the real treasures of this event. And a special thanks to the projects that collaborated with us; your support turned this adventure into something truly epic.

Racing to the Top: The Score Race with a 200,000 $XAR Prize Pool

Once the XAR app was fired up, the city became our playground. The Score Race had us zipping around Hong Kong, our eyes glued to our phones as we hunted for digital goodies. It felt like the whole city was in on the game, with leaderboard prizes spurring us on to greater feats of exploration.

Score Race Leaderboard Prizes:

Top 100 scorers: 1,000 $XAR each (on average)

1st place: 30,000 $XAR,

Through the Lens: The Photo Competition

Hong Kong’s urban beauty became the backdrop for our Snapshot Photo Competition. From iconic skylines to hidden alleyways, participants captured the city in augmented pixels.

The Discord channel overflowed with creative snapshots, turning our community into a gallery of digital artists. Celebrating the top entries was a highlight, showcasing not just the talent within our community but also the captivating allure of Hong Kong itself.

Global Vibes: Community Participation

The magic didn't stop at Hong Kong's borders. Our global family got in on the action, voting for their favourite snapshots and participating in the celebration from afar. This worldwide participation underscored the universal appeal of adventure and discovery, proving that the spirit of XAR knows no boundaries.

A Community United: Support and Collaboration

Our adventure was made all the richer thanks to the enthusiastic support from KOLs and our incredible project partners. Your efforts to amplify our City Drop helped draw a crowd of intrepid explorers, making the event a roaring success. Your collaboration has laid the groundwork for future adventures and has shown what we can achieve when we come together.

AMA Spotlight: Sharing Our Story

One of our proudest moments was the AMA on Binance Live. It was a chance to share the essence of XAR with the world, highlighting the innovative potential of augmented reality gaming. This platform allowed us to connect with a wider audience, sharing our vision and inviting more explorers to join our journey.

The Real Connection: The Breakfast Meetup

Amid our digital escapades, the breakfast meetup in Hong Kong brought us back to the heart of the experience: real-world connections with partners and friends.

Sharing stories, laughter, and plans for future adventures, we were reminded that at the core of XAR is a community that thrives on shared experiences and genuine connections.

As we reflect on the Hong Kong City Drop, we're filled with gratitude for the memories made, the adventures shared, and the community that grew even closer. This event was just the beginning of our journey into blending the digital with the real, exploring new worlds, and creating unforgettable experiences.
